The voice of scared shitless reason said, "Oh my God, oh my God! She's got a gun. She's got a gun!" - Jason Tanamor

I always wanted to be an author. I thought it was the coolest job. As a child of immigrant parents, it wasn't ever something that they promoted. They always wanted me to do something practical.

My favorite author is Chuck Palahniuk. I'd never been a big reader, often going long stretches without reading. Then I read Fight Club (novel).

I considered myself white, having grown up essentially American but with Filipino parents. I don't speak with an accent and I barely speak Tagalog. So, for most of my life, I looked at the world as a 'white' person.
